Leaving Myvatn we continued on the Ring Road to the northeast part of the island. One of the things you see everywhere is sheep, either in the fields or on the menu. They all have a long wool coat and look like marshmallows with short legs out in the fields. In Iceland we had lamb a number of different ways roast lamb, sliced lamb and lamb steak, and in the hearty Icelandic lamb soup.

This waterfall is 420 feet high and one of several along the road in the East Fjord area.
Some waterfalls had turnouts, most didn't. Some were just drive bys. We met a couple from Amsterdam who were kind enough to take our picture here.
STUDIO BY THE SEA
We drove over a mountain range covered in fog to get to the small town and our BnB.
A cruise ship was anchored in the port of Seydisfjordur, population 676, at the end of the fjord.
Our small BnB shared a roof with the owner's home. It was on the shore of the fjord.
All of our Iceland BnB's bedding consisted of individual duvets. This seems to be a common practice in Europe.
